Wood Hall Hotel and Spa, Country house hotel in Sicklinghall, England.
Wood Hall Hotel occupies a Grade II listed building with 44 rooms and two acres of landscaped gardens overlooking the Wharfe Valley. The property features an indoor pool, spa facilities, and a gym while preserving its original Georgian character.
The estate was designed by architect John Carr around 1750 for Catholic landowners who established it as part of their family holdings. It later became a boys' preparatory school until 1966, when it transitioned to hotel use.
The Georgian-style dining room celebrates Yorkshire's farming heritage through menus that shift with the seasons and highlight ingredients from producers across the region.
The property sits away from the main village on Trip Lane, making a car convenient for arrival though the setting is peaceful. The landscaped grounds and grounds allow guests to walk and explore outdoors at their own pace throughout the day.
Mother Teresa visited the property during its years as a pastoral center for the Roman Catholic Diocese of Leeds, adding an unexpected chapter to its story. Few visitors realize this connection when they arrive, making it a subtle point of historical interest.
